Hi, I’m Aadarsh Khakholia.

I’ve always been inclined toward roles that go beyond pure execution—ones that require both strategic thinking and creativity. With a foundation in finance, I’ve spent the past few years exploring marketing across sales, digital, and brand functions, driven by a curiosity to understand what truly works.

I’m excited to be joining ISB Co’27.

My experience with Admit Expert was highly structured and truly impactful. Their support throughout the essay-writing process—from initial brainstorming to final refinements—helped me craft a more thoughtful and authentic narrative. I particularly valued their creative approach, which pushed me to think deeper, while also providing clear, objective feedback on what worked best.

What stood out most was their philosophy of ensuring that applicants write their own essays. This emphasis on authenticity allowed my true voice and experiences to come through clearly in the application.

My mentor, Manas, was consistently supportive, honest, and focused on presenting the strongest version of my profile. The entire team—including Shami, Aseem, Sudha, Rohan, and Clifford—was equally proactive and responsive, even during late hours and weekends, making the entire journey smooth and reassuring.

The mock interview sessions were especially valuable and a complete game changer. My interviewer, Pranjali, provided clear, actionable feedback and helped me approach the actual interview with confidence and clarity.

I’m grateful for their support in helping me secure an admit to ISB and would highly recommend them to anyone seeking serious, well-rounded guidance through the MBA application process.

Should have a single point of contact, some processes are unnecessarily complicated

I'm an NRI witth 5.5 years of experience in high ticket sales who was preparing to repatriate to India after GMAT for a 1-year MBA program. Admit Expert and their team took the time required to understand my request and assigned a consultant who was ideal for my admissions journey. Their team helped shape my stories and experience into a cohesive narrative for essays, SOPs, resumes and LORs. The consultant I selected was regularly engaged in conversation with me regarding school shortlisting, narrative formation and interview prep. With their assistance I was able to secure admits in 3 of my four preferences. IIM A PGPX, IIM B EPGP, IIM C MBA Ex. I've chosen to join IIM A for the 26-27 Batch of PGPX. Based on my experience I would wholeheartedly recommend Admit Expert to anyone beginning preparation for MBA applications.

I come from a venture capital investing background with over six years of experience, and as I began thinking seriously about pursuing an MBA, my primary goal was to gain international exposure and broaden my perspective beyond the Indian ecosystem. While I had clarity on why I wanted an MBA, translating my experiences and long-term goals into compelling applications for top schools was a challenging and demanding process.

Working with Admit Expert brought much-needed structure, clarity, and confidence to my application journey. From the very beginning, the team took the time to deeply understand my background, career trajectory, and post-MBA aspirations. Their guidance went far beyond surface-level edits — they pushed me to refine my narrative, articulate my impact more clearly, and present a coherent story that resonated with each school’s values.

Sudha and Rahul were consistently supportive throughout the process, ensuring smooth coordination, timely feedback, and steady momentum across essays and interview preparation. Their responsiveness and attention to detail made a demanding process far more manageable.

The essay feedback was thoughtful, honest, and highly personalised, helping me sharpen both my short-term goals and long-term vision. The mock interviews were equally valuable, offering candid feedback and helping me prepare for nuanced questions with confidence and clarity.

With Admit Expert’s support, I received admission offers from both ISB and London Business School. I am truly grateful to the entire Admit Expert team for their commitment, professionalism, and genuine investment in my journey. I would strongly recommend them to anyone looking for focused, structured, and high-quality guidance through the MBA admissions process.

I worked with Admit Expert during my MBA application journey and was looking for guidance that was clear and grounded, especially while transitioning from a Chartered Accountancy and deal advisory background into an MBA. What stood out was how Admit Expert runs the process. It’s broken into clear stages: starting with a profile evaluation call, then detailed brainstorming sessions, school selection, and finally the essay and application phase. They also try to match you with a consultant who understands your background, which makes the discussions more relevant and honest.
Another strong part of their process is the pre-application calls and mock interviews with alumni from the same schools you’re applying to. It gives you a very realistic sense of what to expect and helps refine your overall story. I also want to specifically mention the operations team — Sudha and Rohan are extremely prompt and always helpful in resolving queries throughout the process.
With the guidance of Admit Expert, I was able to secure an admit from ISB. Overall, Admit Expert follows a very personalised and well-organised approach. I would definitely recommend them to anyone planning to apply to B-schools and looking for a structured, thoughtful application journey.

Strengths:

A highly dedicated team of mentors and alumni who were available through out the process.

I started my MBA application journey after around 5 years at Shell, working across various roles in Financial Planning (FP&A), Business valuation and M&A. The limited time between GMAT and ISB application deadline and the overwhelming process involved made me consider seeking additional support from someone who understood the process and could provide the right direction. Reviews on GMAT Club helped me narrow down my options, and that’s how I found Admit Expert. From the onset, the team was highly responsive and took the time to understand my specific goals. Since INSEAD was my top priority, I was introduced to Aditya, an INSEAD alumnus, whose guidance was instrumental throughout the entire process. From school selections to interviews, he was there every step of the way and provided the right guidance that helped me course-correct, refine my story, and present a coherent and compelling application.

I received an admit from ISB before submitting my INSEAD application and had a tough decision to make. But the application process itself provided a much-needed clarity and helped reaffirm my priorities and expectations from the MBA.

Mock interviews with Imran and Namitha were particularly valuable, they offered sharp insights and helped me identify areas for improvement while reinforcing my strengths. Special thanks to Sudha and Rohan for being available throughout the process and sometimes even round the clock. A friend once said it’s an 80-20 equation—consultants could support with 10–20% of the overall effort. But having gone through the process myself, I realised that this 10–20% plays a crucial role, especially if you’re navigating the journey with limited exposure and a tight timeline.

Overall grateful to the entire team of Admit Expert for all the support. This journey introduced me to some great mentors and peers, and I would strongly recommend them to anyone pursuing an MBA.

I have a very generic profile - engineering education, but I had a unique job switch to a brand consultant. I had to find the right admission consultancy to help me bring out my strengths and clearly convey my future ambitions. I came across Admit Expert when I had just about 2 months to work on all my essays. They have a very rigorous process that ensures that you represent yourself perfectly in your applications. This is through brainstorming sessions that help you find your unique story, through making sense of your post-MBA goals and recommending a path. Post this, I had constant support from my counsellor to help me fine-tune my essays word by word, and this was further sent to a quality assurance team that would do a final sweep before I submitted my application. In addition to this, I also received material to prepare for my interviews with the colleges. With their constant support and guidance I got an admit in Mannheim Business School with 3000 Euros as Scholarship. All in all, I'm very happy with my experience with Admit Expert, and I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for an admissions consultant.
